King James Version with Web Encyclopedia Links:Isaiah 1
Isaiah 1
The Books of Prophecy consist of the Major and Minor Prophets, These are classied as such because of the volume of twords written in each book rather than the importance of the book. Compare the number of words and you will see the difference. The Major Prophets are Isaiah, Jeremiah, Lamentations, Ezekiel and Daniel.
The book of Isaiah is known as the Little Bible. It has 66 chapters like the Bible. Chapters 1-39 speaks more of the Righteousness of God and His Judgement which any identify with the Old Testament and Chapters 40-66 has 27 chapters just like the Old Testament and tend to talk about the comfort and compassion that God will give his people. This is similar to the New Testament. The Theme running through Isaiah is salvation. The name Isaiah means 'God is salvation'.
There are four prophetic peaks (points) which are desribed in Jensen's Jensen's Bible Study Charts. Peak 1 deals with the prophecy in the prophet's lifetime, Peak 2 deals with the prophecy related to the Captivity and the Restoration, Peak 3 is the The First Coming of Jesus, Peak 4 is related to the Second return and the Millenial Kingdom, New Heavens and New Earth. When a prophet sees a vision or has a revelation from God it could be any of these four prophetic peaks or a combination of peaks. For example, Isaiah 53 spoke about the first coming. Isaiah 9 is a combination of Peaks 3 and 4.
